The SLSJ 2010 Regional Seminars

With a view to building a national students’ social movement, we have decided this year to hold three regional seminars, as opposed to one national seminar. The regional seminars will be organized on a slightly smaller scale than a national seminar, and will be held in the Western Cape, the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal.

SLSJ Western Cape Seminar Dates:

Saturday 31 July 2010 to Sunday 1 August 2010. Meet above Kramer Law (if you are leaving from UCT) or outside of the Main Library (if you are leaving from UWC) at 8:00 sharp on the Saturday and expect to be back by 18:00 on Sunday.

Applications:

For planning and catering purposes and to avoid being disappointed, we request that forms be submitted as soon as possible. Places are limited, and we expect significant oversubscription.

Eligible to Attend:

SLSJ is open to all. Places are awarded on a first-come-first-serve basis, however, the committee reserves the right to make determinations regarding acceptance based on capacity limitations and the extent to which your motivation corresponds to the aims of the seminar. There are only 200 places so get your form in immediately!

Motivation:

Please include a brief motivation of why you wish to attend the seminar.
